Imagine going to work and the next thing you know George Strait is at your drive-thru wanting a hamburger. This happened recently to a woman named Becky Gonzalez at a Dairy Queen outside of San Antonio, Texas. George was wearing a baseball hat and sunglasses, but it’s hard to go incognito when you’re the most recognizable man in Texas. Becky posted on TikTok about the whole encounter and said George was kind and “super handsome”. She even got a selfie with George on his way out. George ordered the Hungr-Buster. That’s a quarter pound hamburger, and he had it topped with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, and mustard.

Afterwards he said, “I would feel disrespectful to call this my song at this moment. It is now Jamal’s song.” Judges Carrie Underwood, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan also had nothing but good things to say about Jamal’s performance.
